SACRAMENTO, CA - Sacramento police are looking for a person who fired shots in the course of robbing two stores Thursday night.

No one was hurt.

The robber, believed to be the same individual in the two crimes, wore a white clown masks similar to what KISS rock band members wear on stage, witnesses said.

Then at about 9:28 p.m., a robber in the same disguise went into a liquor store on the 2900 block of Del Paso Boulevard, fired one gunshot, and held up the employees.

SACRAMENTO, CA - A Natomas special education teacher is under investigation by district officials for allegedly kicking a 13-year-old student in the leg during a field trip.

Evelyn Miller suffers from severe autism. She now has bruises from an outing to a fast food restaurant last Friday where the kicking incident allegedly happened.

"We got a call from the school saying that Evelyn got kicked but they didn't say by whom," Evelyn's dad Damian Miller said.

Damian Miller said the principal at Heron Middle School revealed days later that Evelyn's teacher was allegedly responsible for kicking her on that outing.

The school removed the teacher from the classroom and placed her on administrative leave pending an investigation.

"We trust our teachers to protect our kids, not harm or kick them, " Evelyn's mom Angie Miller said.

The Miller family filed a police report this week. No charges have been filed.
